How perfect would a whole quilt of that be??? <BR/><BR/>And tomorrow, I am taking a class with a friend on making t-shirt quilts...so I guess I should save all the scraps, huh? lol!Laurihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13738480269575391608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-3606789208407583452008-01-25T08:28:00.000-06:002008-01-25T08:28:00.000-06:00Hi - I deleted my comment above as I found this re...Hi - I deleted my comment above as I found this really good t-shirt rag rug tutorial link:<BR/><BR/>http://rubyglen.com/crafts/ragrug.htm<BR/><BR/>I am going to dig through every old t-shirt I can find and make something useful!Three Birds Inspiredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10462935193167668508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-39420078799739058532008-01-25T08:25:00.000-06:002008-01-25T08:25:00.000-06:00This comment has been removed by the author.Three Birds Inspiredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10462935193167668508noreply@blogger.com
